Game works fine in flash, doesn't work in Java player
Hello all,
I built my first scratch project last night, and it works flawlessly with the Flash player. But I got some comments about the Java version not working and sure enough I switched over and they don't work.
I'm using Chrome, and here's the project:
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/iantcummings/2839357
I just do a simple script on two buttons at the start of the game to move from this state to the next.
when [DEM] clicked set isGop to [0] broadcast [newgame] when [GOP] clicked set isGop to [1] broadcast [newgame]And then the stage and ball and paddles listen for that 'newgame' event to show up and start the simulation.
Any ideas on why this wouldn't work in Java?

Well, it doesn't really matter if it doesn't work in Java. The Java player will become obsolete pretty soon because of Scratch 2.0, which will be all Flash based.

Re: Game works fine in flash, doesn't work in Java player
I noticed that my games don't work in Java. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to switch to the Flash player before my browser stopped trying to reload the page (my browser tries to load it, then it says "there was an error that caused the tab to close and reopen." And then it just said "your browser was not able to return you to mit.edu.")

I don't think the problem that I'm having has anything to do with the Scratch site. I went to some other sites that had Java programs, and guess what! I found that they ran fine in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer.
